Product Insights
The Buttoned-Tab Faux-Suede Minidress from Icône ($89) uses recycled polyester faux suede that matches virgin performance in durability and scuff resistance but requires dry cleaning and shade from direct sun. Fitting true to size with a caveat to size up for bust/waist due to minimal stretch, the 33-inch A-line hem and princess seams offer hip room; a full lining prevents transparency but suggests nude undergarments for Mossy Green. Buttoned tabs and topstitching avoid plainness, and the consistent length across Icône minis aligns with their quality-at-mid-price, sustainable design ethos.
Verified claims
- Hem height
- Measured 33 inches / 84 cm from the top of the shoulder, the hem lands at mid-thigh on a 5'6" wearer and shifts about ½ inch per inch of height difference.
- Body shape fit
- True to size by the chart, but many reviewers find the minimal-stretch faux suede runs small through the bust and waist, so sizing up is safer; the slightly flared A-line gives hip room.
- Fabric feel and stretch
- Soft, velvety faux suede has minimal stretch; shoppers between sizes may want to size up through the bust and waist.
- Lining
- Full thin lining prevents see-through, but nude undergarments recommended for Mossy Green.
- Care
- The care label permits machine washing with no bleach and hang drying, but dry cleaning or spot cleaning with a damp cloth also works. Keep the dress out of direct sunlight to slow color fading; weekly brushing, steaming instead of ironing, and air-drying after moisture preserve the nap.
- Durability
- More scuff-resistant than genuine suede, with full lining and topstitching rare at this price.
- Wear resistance
- Resists scuffs and shape loss; recycled equals virgin durability.
- Color retention
- Retains color saturation; direct sunlight may cause fading.
- Design details
- Design details include a hidden back zip, buttoned tabs at the hem, mini front slits, topstitched finishing, and a full thin lining; the tabs and topstitching signal quality and keep the hem from looking plain.
- Fit and shaping
- The slight A-line flare gives hip room without relying on stretch, so the non-stretch faux suede doesn't pull across the lower body.
- Value
- Exclusive private-label model avoids licensing fees, delivering quality and sustainability at $89.
- Faux suede
- The dress's shell is recycled polyester faux suede (half conventional polyester, half recycled-bottle polyester); it is durable, easy to clean, and matches virgin performance.
- Construction
- Fully lined with topstitching and buttoned hem tabs reflect careful finishing.
- Length consistency
- The dress's 33-inch length is consistent across Icône mini dresses, a brand design signature.
- Recycled polyester
- Recycled polyester cuts energy 45–85% and CO2 30–60%, with identical performance to virgin.
- Brand sustainability
- Icône regularly uses lower-impact materials across its line, backed by a quality-at-mid-price design philosophy.
- Lining material
- The dress is fully lined with a thin 97% polyester, 3% spandex lining.
- Colors
- Available in Chocolate/Espresso and Mossy Green.
- Hem tab function
- The buttoned tabs at the hem are a decorative design detail; they do not adjust length or drape, and the 33-inch length is fixed.
- Front slit modesty
- The mini front slits are small vents for movement; with the full lining and slight flare, they open modestly when walking or sitting instead of gaping wide.

Layered over shirts for cold-weather outfits
Shopper feedback describes layering this faux-suede minidress over shirts for fall and winter styling. Its cut is said to accommodate shirts underneath, so it can work as a layered cold-weather piece as well as a standalone dress.[1]
Chic evenings out in a faux-suede minidress
Wear this Icône minidress as a chic standalone piece for dressing up in the evening — reviewers report its rich faux-suede and quality color draw compliments, with a flattering cut. Note the non-stretch fabric runs tight on hips and chest, so it's reported to run small and sizing up is often needed, with XL the largest size available.[1]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Buttoned-Tab Faux-Suede Minidress: Choose this if you want a sleeveless, slightly A-line minidress in a rich faux suede with a velvety feel—half of its polyester is recycled, it has a full thin lining, and buttoned tabs with short front slits at the hem. Reviewers describe it as flattering, compliment-worthy for chic evenings, and easy to layer with shirts underneath for fall and winter. Note that reviewers report it runs a full size small with no-stretch fabric that's tight on hips and chest, so sizing up is advised—and XL is the largest size offered.[1,2] | Irregular Buttons Ponte Minidress: Choose this if you want a comfortable, form-fitted minidress for office-to-evening occasions: reviewers report its substantial, stretchy ponte knit moves with you, resists wrinkles, and pairs well with blazers or heels, while the irregular gold-tone and silver-tone buttons give what reviewers call a 'business but fun' vibe. Note that it runs small for its body-con fit, and sizing up often makes the shoulders too large for petite frames, so sizing is tricky. Also, the front buttons are decorative only — the dress closes with a back zipper — and the snug, clinging knit stays form-fitted even in larger sizes, which may not suit those wanting a relaxed silhouette.[3] | Faux-Leather Flared Ruffle Dress: Choose this if you want a short, sleeveless faux-leather dress with a flared, slightly trapeze silhouette that widens into a gathered ruffle hem with soft vertical folds. It has a high crew neck, wide armholes with exposed edges, a back zip closure, and a smooth glossy finish, in a length of about 33 inches (84 cm) from the top of the shoulder. The faux leather is made of 50% polyurethane and 50% polyester from recycled plastic, and it comes in sizes X-Small through X-Large in Black or Chocolate/Espresso.[4,5,6] |

Beautiful dress
A beautiful dress and very chic.
superbe
tissu et couleur de qualité
Super belle
Belle coupe, beau tissu. Grandeur plus petit que normal donc le XL fait un large pas plus. Pas disponible plus grand que XL!
Great piece - runs small
Even though I’m usually small/medium in this brand, I had to exchange in store as a bit snug around hips and fabric doesn’t stretch — but great dress!
Nice but tight
I am usually a small but even medium is tight on me (bigger chested). Other than that it’s a great dress that can be styled with many different options of shirts underneath
